Описание: Why care about intellectual humility? What is an intellectual virtue? How do we know who is intellectually humble? The nature of intellectual virtues is a topic of ancient interest. But contemporary philosophy has experienced unparalleled energy and concern for one particular virtue over the past 30 years: intellectual humility. Intellectual Humility: An Introduction to the Philosophy and Science draws on leading research to provide an engaging and up-to-date guide to understanding what it is and why it's important.

By using ten big questions to introduce the concept, this introduction presents a vibrant account of the ideas behind intellectual humility. Covering themes from philosophy, psychology, education, social science, and divinity, it addresses issues such as:

What human cognition tells us about intellectual virtues
The extent to which traits and dispositions are stable from birth or learned habits
How emotions affect our ability to be intellectually humble
The best way to handle disagreement
The impact intellectual humility has on religion or theological commitments

Written for students taking the University of Edinburgh's online course, this textbook is for anyone interested in finding out more about intellectual humility, how it can be developed and where it can be applied.

Описание: The Journey of a Lifetime

Over sixteen years ago, Michael Hayes Samuelson received a phone call that forever changed his life. "Hello, Michael. This is Dr. Marcus. No good news. You have cancer." Those three words-you have cancer-echoed in his brain.

Okay, now what? For Michael, an internationally known and respected health educator and motivational speaker, his health message took on more urgency. The diagnosis was a penetrating wake-up call yanking him into menacing and mysterious territory.

He was a man with breast cancer, a stranger in a strange land.

In the beginning, this uninvited-and mind-numbing-voyage was distorted by a cracked prism of muted and blurred colors, only to burst forth with the passage of time to reveal both a heightened internal focus and an intense desire-an urgent need, commanding him to leave the comfort of the couch, put on his boots, pick up his trekking poles, and explore the outer reaches of the planet, on foot.

This book captures just a few of his many reflections and personal poems, sharpened by cancer, spawned from taxicabs, military service, mountains, rain forests, glaciers, boardrooms-and life.

Описание: Managerial Economics, Revised Edition is a combination of the two previous Hirschey/Pappas texts, designed, as they were, to provide a solid foundation of economic understanding for use in managerial decision making. One key feature of this text is its attempt to depict the firm as a cohesive, unified organisation rather than a series of discrete, unrelated areas. A basic valuation model is constructed and used as the underlying economic model of the firm. Each topic in the text is then related to an element of the value maximisation model. In this process management is seen to involve an integration of all business functions. Managerial Economics, Revised Edition is designed to present those aspects of economic theory and analysis that are most relevant to students of business administration in an intuitive calculus-based or non-calculus-based format, depending upon the preferences of the instructor. All calculus materials (found in Managerial Economics) now appear in end-of-chapter appendixes. Features: * Offering an intuitive and practical treatment of economic theory and analysis, Mark Hirschey includes a wide variety of examples and simple numerical problems to illustrate mana

On the faculty of Indiana University for his entire career, he has also held Visiting Professorships at the Australian Catholic University, Northwestern University, Princeton University, Stanford University, and Yale University. A historian of philosophy informed by the continental and analytic philosophical traditions, Morgan has reflected on the key challenge of our day: how is objectivity possible in light of the historicity of human life? An interpreter of both “Athens” and “Jerusalem,” Morgan has written on ancient Greek philosophy, modern Jewish philosophy, post-Holocaust theology and ethics, Zionism, and Messianism.
